That's cool, congrats! My girls had their fun with mine and I'd like to keep it around for my Grandson now. It's a body work in progress garage queen at the moment, - I might get it finished by the time he gets a license....in about what, 12 years or so

Blower came In today, just can't make up my mind on what to do.

My aunt also passed away this morning, so keep here in your thoughts and prayers. Pics of engine tomorrow, working on finding a different set of cams.

Sorry to hear about your Aunt. Prayers sent to your family.

But what do you mean you don't know what to do? GIT-R-DUN! Are you gonna break in N/A, charged, or charged & turbo'd?

Just a heads up: I have a set of rear o2's with mil-eliminators soldered in if anyone wants to get rid of they're cats and not throw a code on a stock tune. Just ask reimbursement on shipping.

Someone will definitely those. May post that in the BS thread since everyone here has a tuner.

Struck a deal for some parts (hint I may be following in Dave's shadow)
